As a conventional example using an emulsion fuel,
There is an example of a long-term operation of a service ship that uses emulsion fuel mixed with about 10% water. When the mixing ratio of water is about 30% of the fuel, the flame temperature is lowered by evaporation and thermal dissociation of water, and NOx is reduced by about 30%. At the same time, the momentum of the injected fuel increases as much as water is added, and the dispersion of the spray is improved, which also has the effect of reducing soot and dust.

1. A NOx concentration in exhaust gas is measured in a control device for an emulsion fuel of a diesel engine, which is equipped with control means for controlling a mixing ratio of the emulsion fuel by adjusting a flow rate of either heavy oil or water. A control device for emulsion fuel, wherein a value is input to the control means, and the mixing ratio of the emulsion fuel is set based on the measured value.
